Nights at the Quarancinema 6: Into The Wild Hogs (ft. Luke Van Brandenburg)

Take a break from frantically posting about death by fire, plague, and flood to remember the bygone era of 2007, a pre-irony time when four prehistoric beasts starred in a Disney-sponsored comedy about being middle-aged. We are finally addressing the made-for-Hog Planet movie Wild Hogs (2007), a motorcycle flick about fearful, porcine men struggling to reclaim their masculinity. Joining us is Luke Van Brandenburg of the @boosegumps podcast, which you can find on YouTube and Spotify. We motor through the scarce highs and all-too-common lows of the pre-irony and pre-Obergefell v. Hodges humor in this film. Along the way, you will learn far too much about this film, the last gasp of a kind of hoggish humor that truly died out after the 2008 financial crisis.
